Which mechanism curves the path of light near black holes?

A)Spacetime curvature distorts photon trajectories
B)Refraction slows photons near gravity
C)The Doppler effect shifts photon energy
D)Frame dragging twists space itself

💡 Explanation

Spacetime warps near massive objects, so photon trajectories follow this curvature rather than traveling in straight lines; therefore, light bends by following geodesics, because gravitational lensing alters the apparent position of distant objects.
